Week 6 Hackensack Fishing Contest

It was a perfect Sweetheart Day at the lake to be fishing. It was cooler than the last two weeks and the fish were biting, where the big catch of the day was a 14.5 ounce bass.

So many happy faces on the youth and the adults cheering on the little minnows during their races.

After the fishing contest, many families enjoyed playing kids games in the park sponsored by the American Legion Auxiliary 202. There was also a fantastic Farmers Market that is held every Tuesday from 10-2 at the Hub. And of course, the wonderful parade down our beautiful First Street. So much candy!

The hot dog sponsor this week was Lakes Area Powersports (www.lakesareapowersports.com). Whether you are a summer enthusiast or a winter snow fanatic, Lakes Area Powersports is your premiere dealership for all things recreational fun.

The dates for this year are every Tuesday through Aug. 13 from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Be early to register before it starts. We look forward to seeing everyone that can make it.
